Scouting for a location 10.5.25

After trying on dresses, we got a bite to eat, and scouted some places to have the ceremony.  Elizabeth's looking especially at outdoor venues, and with the prices of the dresses she's liking, it's going to have to be cheap, or FREE!  We visited Ottumwa's Central Park near the courthouse, but didn't get any photos.  The backdrop isn't very good, although the location itself is really neat.  It had rained terribly while we were at The Bridal Cottage, and the peonies were all flattened, so I picked one there and stole it to make the car smell w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l!

Then we went to Ottumwa Park, with its lakes, ponds, the fountain and dock, the horse arena and camping.... and the geese and ducks.  We had such fun watching them while eating our Taco Bell.  Then we met up with Geese on Parade...
